    things are a bit up in the air since the weather is saying 75% chance of down pour and i suspect the line won't be inside if there is a line? if that's the case i can't stand outside in the rain w my son and wait in line...although rain could mean a quick in and out. might end up doing a full field trip with the fam too or not at all...i wouldn't count on me for a ride :slight_frown:

    Last release the bottle line was in the back where the fermenters are and wrapped around into the tasting room as opposed to the Superfun release where I was standing outside in the 10 degree weather.

    You should be good to go depending on how hyped up this gets.

    Won't be able to make it until Sunday afternoon. Hopefully it lasts. If anyone going isn't getting a case and wants to #goandpickitupformebro it would be much appreciated.

    Picked up a growler of equinox and hop showers last night on my way back from the city. This batch of hop showers is fantastic!

    So last night I opened a bottle of V-Love for a pre Huna Day share and there was this brown sludge on and around the cap. Anyone else have this issue? It was one of the first bottling of V-Love, so I've had it for a while, but was still wondering wtf happened. The beer itself was fine, but you could understand how my friends were a little put off.

    Regarding the sludge - I've had this happen with Cantillon bottles where there's some sludge between the cork and cap. The beer was also fine though. Not sure what causes that but definitely made me nervous that the beer had gone bad.

    My guess is it has something to do with the sugar in the beer that maybe get on the rim of the bottle and coagulates under the cap due to pressure.

    Just a guess but seems plausible.

    Was at OH at 11am, in and out in 5 mins with a case. The tap room was full but the side room for the can sale only had two other people in line. Go and get it!

    They tweeted at 12:57 that they were down to 69 cases, so I'm not even sure it will last till 3ish when I can make it down.
